There will always be people who see themselves as victims and blame others for their problems; and then there are people like Rocky, who take their own lives into their own hands, and fight. The latter are the winners, no matter whether they succeed or not, because they defeated the hardest opponent - themselves.

[@clevelandwilliams5922]

That’s the hope he offered to his son, because he knew his true capacity and ability. Rocky didn’t just confront, dictate, critic, point out or expose faults & embarrass him. He wanted him to realise that in the end their was a way out to that negative, defeatist & cowardly mindset. He gave him timely advice with that comment “Be responsible, accountable & accepting of choices, don’t blame others or seek to blame anyone. Own it and learn from the experience, so when your facing the same challenge, circumstances or adversity, your prepared to face it head on. Learning can only be attained by experience, advice & accumulate adaptive skills. Remember it’s going to be hard, tough and even difficult but don’t have the mindset “I wish, I overcame my difficulties or I had confidence”. Because in the end what happens in time past cannot be regained, cannot be changed or even cannot be relived to gain a different outcome. The person needs to have the belief in one skill coupled with the courage in abilities learned to trust in them to achieve a desired result. As Teddy Atlas “Do not allow pressure to distort time.” You’ll be able to overcome it in a moment or brief period. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about realising and accepting your weaknesses and how to utilise your strengths in a strategic & methodic fashion.

[@Takaichi666-]

That part of the speech breaks me

[@user-gm1gh8de17]

2:39 “Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!” ~ Rocky

The moment when Rocky became wise beyond his years. Everything Rock has went through all the years has finally came to this particular moment of given some wise advice to his son. He's talking about how to overcome the odds when the whole world is against you. If anyone who knows what its like when life beats you down. Its him!!!! Hes been through the gutter time and time again but never let failure overwhelm him or give up hope. He's always endured through faith in God and the love of his family/friends. This May be Rocky defining moment of character development throughout the series.

Rocky V is classic, street fight, helps his son stand up for himself, and money/cars/houses = materialist things vs. family, heart, determination to do something. Even Creed 1-3 are valuable lessons for the younger generation under 40 years of age. Come from something and turn into something bigger! Earn it, fight for it, don’t stop!

Watched this clip before I went for the interview for my dream job. I got offered. Best motivational talk ever.

[@jesindawilliams9319]

This is literally the second time, I've heard that speech, and the first time I heard it, touched my heart so deeply, it stuck with me and brought tears to my eyes

[@lewdogzombies]

This speech can motivate me to achieve anything, always gets me crying

[@mattkarnas1012]

Right now I feel ROCKY 4 SHOULD be played on every television channel especially the words and speech at the end..show this younger generation what work means

[@DOHCtorMiguel]

Prime example why "Rocky" is my favorite movie/franchise of all time. Always inspiring. I get choked up every time I see scenes like this.

[@RossIsFine]

They need to play this speech in every classroom across America.

[@pvitaljr1]

This may be the best motivational speech ever to appear in a movie. And both actors were perfect.

Do u believe in yourself? If you do, do you want your kids be a part of your life. If you do, you know what to do.

[@JakeKayhko]

Native eh?

[@TheKickboxingCommunity]

You took of care of them. You provided. And nobody can say that you didn't.

Growing up my top 2 favorite Rocky movies were 1&2 until this one came out. This one took 2's spot and gave me a little more appreciation for 5. Without the circumstances from Rocky 5 this one probably wouldn't exist. Legendary speech from a Legendary actor, you are the man Sly!

[@popcornenglishonline9548]

This speech can literally save many lives

[@wilbertrobles1123]

Like a tank on a Mission. Taking all the hits & working my way to the top ! No excuses. No finger pointing. Just gratitude & determination.

[@egmaverikc84]

Adrian would have these talks with Rocky. Now Rocky is having the same talks with this son.

[@neanda]

that is interesting.

[@romeofthewing9626]

I wonder how Milo was feeling when Sly delivered that? That was so powerful. There was so much GREATNESS in that speech. I tear up when I hear it. So many emotions in it. There's Sorrow, Anger, Determination, Hope, and Love. Sly is a gift to the Screen. God Bless you Stallone "Rocky"

[@duckticklervii854]

My dad used to give me a very similar speech and always said, "If you're ever feeling down or depressed to watch this scene" Now that he's gone, it just hits that much harder.

[@gabrieljohannson6777]

The most honest and truthful description of what life about.

[@sincerelyyurrs]

I needed this speech. It had me in tears

[@LouisWritingSomethingCrazy]

Thank you, Rocky, thank you. Sometimes I just need that reminder.

[@Tdotpescot]

When life is beating me down and when I’m having a hard time figuring out what it’s all for I play this speech, close my eyes, and imagine my father speaking to me. Telling me I can take the hits and keep moving forward. Telling me I am worth it if I believe I am.

[@UsernameJPKRUSPNCB]

Until you start believing in yourself, you're not going to have a life.. This word hit me like a heavy punch.

[@samkadam008]

These lines got absorbed in my soul permanently... Thank you Dialogue Writer Sir and Sylvester Sir❤

[@DevilinjaguarJaguar-cm7pm]

Don't forget to visit your mother . Awesome lines .

[@omarsanchez9709]

This what is what I think is happening with our youth these days. They aren't willing to take the hits that life brings. They are scarred of the hits so they hide and blame the system, they blame the rich, they blame everything and everyone. I wish they would see this video. My father used to tell my brothers and I a similar message after our brother passed away from cancer when he was only 15. We had to keep moving forward and do good in life and appreciate the things that no amount of money can buy or fix (our health, love for family). And above all, we had to not be afraid to take chances to achieve something we wanted. I see so many young kids now and they are so afraid, so lost. Man. I hope it changes
